Question

Wedding Registry and/or Shower Gift Options?

Answer

Hello! It definitely feels weird for us to make a registry, but on this website you can find some ideas we have put together. Electronic cash funds through our venmo for hiking gear and our honeymoon, as well as an amazon wishlist will be located here on the website at the top of the page under "Registry". However, we are open to anything you are interested in. There will be a table/ box at the reception for any good, old-fashioned cards or gifts as well! Thank you very much, and do not feel the need to give anything, we understand everyone will be traveling a long way to come celebrate with us in Durango, your presence is our present!
